On Saturday a man said to be
one Henry Knowles who used to
buy grain at LaMars, came across
from Dakota, with a note for 5000
payable in lumber. and signed, by
Isaac Moore, who runs a SAW mill ON
the other side of the river. This note
Moore had given Knowles for q
horse, and Knowles came over and.
traded the note to D. p Sherwood
for another horse and $25.O 90 ii; mon.
ey. He also borrowed of Sherwood
d saddle valued at $500, and on
Saturday afteth66n took his depart.
ure with horse, money and saddle:
and has not been seen since. And
his haste In dethatefialidng was not
without cause. Hardly had he sot
out of sight, before Moore catle tip
on the scene hunting for Knowles.
It was claimed that the horse which
Moore had given his $500 note for
had been stolen by Knowles. The
owner came after it, and now Moore
came after Knowles. But he could
not find him, and it was learned he
had taken the back track into Dako-

TAHLEQUAH, l. T, Jan. l3.-Much in
terest is being manifested, both by the
Cherokees and Southern Kansas Railway
Company and other roads, in the suits
soon TO ne brought in the United States
| court ct Fort Smith, Ark: by the Cher
okee nation against said roads to test
he right Of tresspass or whether or not
congress has the right to grant right
Of ways through Cherokee lands to
railway corporations without the consent
of the Cherokee nation. John c. Fay OF
Washington, an eminent attorney and
former attache of the encouragement
office during the Brewster term, has been
re aimed by the nation with g $4,000 fee to
attend to the case, and if lost in the
court al Fort Smith to carry

ing case, as much is involved, not Only
the question Of trespsss, but others OF
greater Importance affecting Indian rights,
their tiles to their lands, etc Then cor
pCratiOns who are anxious to run lines of
railway through their country will know
exactly what course TO pursue. As il Is
there seems 10 be q h,tGh between con
greSS and the courts as 10 what is viola
zion Of treaties, ard the suit will
settle it. A great many Chero-
KEGS are afraid the question
has already been settled since the ng-
tional couuCil authorized the bringing Of
this suit in the manner which IL did,
thus acknowledging that the rail way COM
panies do exist here with certain rights
The suits should have been brought ig-
noring the roads altogether the same as
if they did not exist and could
not exist without the COR
sent of the Cherokee nation
as the treaties provide. Then again, the
act Of congress authorizing this suit in
plain Eoglish only, allowed the Cherokee
nation the right to sue for more money
as to the value Of the franchise, if the
nation did not agree that the price al
lowed By the appraisers appointed by the
president was enough. Our people are
in dilemma, some thinking the right of
trespass can be tried under this act
referred to, while others think q
mistake has been made detrimental to
the nations interest, and the only thing
that could have been done would have
been to have asked for a general re-
domains contrary to treaties and laws.
The Cherokees are never afraid of the
courts, though, and If they have made
mistake in this they expect it
to be over ooked and their interts acted
upon, for heretofore they have been uni
versally sustained.

est of railroads that commerce should be
developed, not restained. that its
volume should be increased,
and its freedom Enhampered. He
read resolutions adopted By the Peoria
and Minneapolis Boards of Trade in OPP
position to the bill and thought that the
opinions of such commercial bodies
should have weight on congress. As. to
the question of pooling. ne asked whether
the senate was ready to say that equaliZa.
ton and uniformity of rates should not
be allowed. They all knew that pooling
did produce uniformity and liza
biiity, and that these qualities were
the most important in the interest of
shippers. Why should congress desire
to lay impediments in the way OF trans
fer betweenEthe states. Whatever there
might be in this feature, whatever could
be read in the past, the greatest and most
reliable principles Of progress and pros
perity consisted in observing the law and
maintaining peace and accord at home.
At the conclusion of MIR. Evart's
speecb, Mr.. CullOm stated that he desired
that vote should be taken to-day, but
MIR Hoar suggested that ne and other
senators desired to speak, and that there
wss no desire 10 delay vote unnecessa-
rily. Finally unanimous consent was
given that vote be taken before adjourn
ment to morrow.

with the house substitute having been re-
ceived from the house, the amendment
was Ion-CoDcnrred II and conference

After an executive session the senate
